Chandrasekaran G. Epicyclic Gearing. Optimization Techniques 2025

Textbook in PDF format

This book provides a broad introduction to the optimization techniques used in the design and manufacturing of epicyclic gearing.
A wide variety of optimization techniques are covered, with a strong focus on practical application. The formulation of the underlying mathematical models and the algorithms for solving them are explained, which are then applied to solve real-world problems in epicyclic gearing. Figures and charts are provided to convey the intuition behind the various approaches. Each chapter includes a detailed case study based on a real-world application of epicyclic gearing. The case studies highlight the realities and challenges in the design optimization of epicyclic gearing systems, illustrate the application of optimization techniques in a real-world context, compare different optimization techniques in terms of performance, ease of use, etc., and identify the areas of future work
